STOVE-LEG.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 240,682, dated April 26, 1881.

Application filed February 25, 1881.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM R. FENER'IY,

of Louisville, in the county of Jefferson and V 'tious, forininga dovetail therewith, the leg bein g also provided with a central stud for looking the leg to the flange of the stove, as hereinafter fully described.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a top view of my invention with a portion of the flange of the stove broken away. Fig. 2 is a front elevation, also with a portion of the flange cut away; and Fig. 3 is a vertical section taken on the line a: w of Fig. 1.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

' A represents the leg of the stove, cast with the surrounding shoulder a and with the upwardly-inclined shank b, the side ends, 6 b, of which are beveled, as shown The center of the inclined shank a is east with the stud (I, having the lateral cut or slot d formed in it.

B represents the edge of the stove-bottom, which is cast with the downwardly-inclined flange e andwith the undercut project-ions 6 (Model.)

c,and it is also formed with the hole 0 and proyided on the upper side with the pivoted latch or button a. The edge B is to be secured to the body of the stove by the projections i and by bolts which pass through the holes 'i.

Constructed in this manner the leg can always he firmly attached to the stove without much difficulty. and the shank being vertical, the weight of the stove always secures a perfeet fit between the edge of the flange and the shoulder. presenting always a good appear.- ance. And, besides, in casting the bottom the undercut projections are solid on the pattern and the castings are always uniform, requiring little or no fitting, thus resulting in great saving of labor.

Instead of using the latch or button 6 for engaging with the slot in the stud (Z to fasten the with the stud (I, in combination with the inclined flange 0, formed with the undercut projection c e, and having the hole 0 and looking device 0, substantially as shown and described. V
